No Alternative to Trump’s Peace Initiative, Says Palestinian Ambassador Hammouri

The Ambassador of Palestine to Nigeria, Muhannad Hammouri, has declared that there is no alternative to the United States–brokered peace deal between Israel and Hamas, describing the initiative as the only viable path to end the two-year conflict in Gaza. Speaking in an interview with The PUNCH, Hammouri said the peace agreement—initiated by US President Donald Trump—offers the best chance to stop the bloodshed and restore stability in the region. “The peace deal announced by President Trump between Israel and Hamas marked a significant development in the two-year-old conflict,” Hammouri said. “It includes a prisoner-hostage swap and a partial withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza.” The deal, known as the Trump Initiative, outlines a 20-point framework featuring a complete ceasefire, the release of Israeli hostages in exchange for Palestinian prisoners, and the phased withdrawal of Israeli troops from Gaza.

China Condemns US ‘Double Standards’ Over New Tariff Threat

China has accused the United States of applying “double standards” after President Donald Trump announced plans to impose an additional 100 percent tariff on all Chinese imports starting November 1. In a statement released on Sunday, a spokesperson for China’s Ministry of Commerce described Trump’s remarks as “a typical example of double standards,” criticizing Washington’s approach to trade relations. Trump had announced on Friday that the new tariffs would be imposed in response to what he called China’s “extraordinarily aggressive” export restrictions on rare-earth minerals — materials crucial for global technology and manufacturing industries. He also hinted that his planned meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping later this month might be canceled. Beijing said the United States has intensified economic pressure on China since September, warning that such actions have damaged mutual trust and disrupted trade negotiations between both nations.

People in Beijing have reacted with calm and defiance to US President Donald Trump’s latest threat to impose steep new tariffs on Chinese imports.

Macron Reappoints Lecornu as French PM, Deepening Crisis

French President Emmanuel Macron has reappointed Sebastien Lecornu as Prime Minister just four days after his resignation, a move that prolongs the country's political crisis. The decision, announced by the Élysée Palace on Friday, dashes hopes for a new face to break the deadlock over an austerity budget. Lecornu, a 39-year-old Macron loyalist, accepted the role "out of duty" and pledged to secure a budget by year's end. The reappointment was met with immediate criticism. The far-right National Rally called it a "bad joke," while the hard left saw it as an insult to the French people. Lecornu's two immediate predecessors were both ousted by parliament over the same budget dispute, and his new government faces the same challenge in a deeply divided assembly.

EU Demands Snapchat, YouTube Explain Child Safety Steps

The European Union has formally demanded that tech giants Snapchat and YouTube explain the measures they are taking to protect children from online harm. The request for information is part of an investigative action under the EU's Digital Services Act (DSA). The European Commission is specifically asking Snapchat how it prevents children under 13 from accessing the platform and how it stops the sale of drugs and vapes through the app. YouTube has been asked to provide details on its content recommendation system following reports of harmful content being disseminated to minors. The commission also sent requests to Apple and Google's app stores regarding their measures to prevent children from downloading harmful apps. This move comes as several EU member states explore the possibility of restricting minors' access to social media at a bloc-wide level, inspired by similar bans in […]

NATO to Start Annual Nuclear Drill Amid Russia Tensions

NATO will begin its annual nuclear deterrence exercise, "Steadfast Noon," on Monday. The two-week drill involves around 70 aircraft and 2,000 personnel from 13 member countries. Alliance chief Mark Rutte stated the exercise is a "regular" and planned activity, not a direct response to recent Russian air incursions into NATO airspace. He emphasized that the drill, which does not involve live warheads, is crucial for ensuring the "credible, safe, and effective" nature of NATO's nuclear deterrent. The operations will be conducted from airbases in the Netherlands, Belgium, Britain, and Denmark. The exercise occurs against a backdrop of heightened nuclear rhetoric from Russia since its invasion of Ukraine, though NATO officials say they have not observed any change in Russia's actual nuclear posture.

One-Third of Europe’s Doctors, Nurses Have Depression – WHO

A new World Health Organization (WHO) report reveals a mental health crisis among healthcare workers in Europe, with one in three doctors and nurses suffering from depression or anxiety.
